I feel as though I haven't seen an object until
I actually start painting it. (Janet Fish)

There are a lot of tricks you have to keep
playing on yourself to keep at it because every
time you hit a problem you want to walk away.
(Janet Fish)

I had this attitude that it was going to take
time for my work to grow. I had to develop skills
to do what I wanted and I didn't really expect it
was going to happen rapidly. (Janet Fish)
